Could you provide a source on the software updates being more frequent, as well as clarify what you mean by rM being bad at updates? rM has been pushing out updates fairly regularly this year, especially if you include their beta channel.
Fair enough, maybe this has changed then. When I last tested and looked into the rM2 in depth (~2 years ago), it was completely different. The software was lacking basic features and there wasn't any communication at all on rM's part.
